1st Annual Cellar Gaming TripleA Octathalon – Brackets and Win Posts

@DizzKneeLand33:

Once we start getting down to the later rounds, it would be great to have the overall standings listed – perhaps with a max points possible column or something?

I don’t think my weakening pride would survive.

@DizzKneeLand33:

Well, since every bracket is double elimination, no one has yet been eliminated from any of them.  For those that may have missed it, the brackets are listed in the links here:

I’ve had a project to have to get done prior to the full fledged tax season, so if you want to take that on Balladeer that would be cool.  :)  The points in each bracket will be 5,3,2,1 for 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th.

Right, double elim, I completely forgot. But that’s easy to fix, because current eliminated becomes losers round (so 3 categories, winners, losers and eliminated).
I also understand the left half of the bracket now, that got me confused since I’m used to something like this: http://www.printyourbrackets.com/pdfbrackets/12teamdouble.pdf

I’ll add in some information I think usefull (including current, min and max points), if anyone thinks of something new he’d like to know, just tell me and I’ll try to put it in there.

But I want to know! Knowledge is power, even if it takes swallowing a little pride ;-)

Allright, second try, now with:

• Winners round, losers round and eliminated
• Current, minimum and maximum score

Just one doubt about this, if you get to the semi final, you’re at least 4th, right? Even thought it’s double elim? Just want to make sure, else the minimum scores are wrong :)

It makes a little sense, but perhaps not as much as you’d like. I did however draw it out on paper and let 8 players play the whole thing out, which helped ;-)

But I got it now, only thing that’s hard is to give proper names to all the different brackets (in a way that they speak for themselves, instead of having to count it all out), especially the losers part, but I’ll give it a try :)

Hey Dizz, I talked to DayMar the other day and I think he is forfeiting all his games. He isn’t really a PBF or PBEM players (just lobby). It doesn’t look like any of his games have started so can probably just consider them all loses at this point.

Lord of the Rings, Bacala (evil) wins over Narushima (good)

New standings, also added a win/loss column :)

How does double elimination work? I mean if you win one and lose one, what happens?
Excuse me, if I am being retarded.

You have to lose twice, after you lose once you go to the left half of the bracket and you get to player losers until:
a) you lose again and are eliminated
b) win in the losers final and then get to play the winner of the winners half in the grand final for the title

Where you lose in the winners bracket decides where you start in the losers bracket (the more wins you have before you lose, the more to the left in the losers bracket you start).

Does that help?

Thank you gir explaining, Balladeer.

Narushima has conceded in our Napoleon game. I was England and the Coalition.

You were both? ;)
